It's a nice property. Has that regal feel with oriental design elements everywhere. it's a larger hotel vs. a botique hotel so they have many amenities on site, and it's really well staffed. Property is kept up very well. I thought the pool area was a highlight as it has a nice view of the mountains in the background. I really liked their green pool towels. I never see that color anymore.

Pretty property. Felt safe the entire time i was there. The breakfast and the ala carte food is great. Music during the evening to complement the dinner. The property is safe and clean. Can feel a little dated with keyed entry to rooms. A little bit of a distance from the night market but not a lot.

Stayed here during a 1-week trip to Chiang Mai. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The rooms aren't the fanciest and somewhat out of date. The gym was sparse and a bit run down. We enjoyed the pool and ample breakfast options. We loved the location that was easily walkable to the markets around Old City but not in the heart of business. Overall a good value!
